Generally speaking, helicopter pilots prefer a smooth operation of
the throttle stick rather than the ratcheting operation commonly
used by fixed wing pilots. The procedure below will allow
modelers to change from this ratcheting operation to the smoother
throttle stick operation.
1) Open the battery cover on the back of the transmitter and remove
the transmitter battery, or batteries.
2) Unplug the battery connection on the left side of the battery
case.
3) Remove the four transmitter rear case screws and remove the
rear case.
4) Change the ratchet plate on the gimbal section to the smooth
ratchet plate for helicopter use.
